Section 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 ScoDe. This handbook provides the Naval FacilitiesEngineering Command's policy and criteria for selection anddesign of heating, ventilating, air conditioning (WAC), anddehumidifying systems as applied to Naval shore facilities.
1.2 Cancellation. This handbook cancels and supersedesNAVFAC design manual DM-3.03, Heatina, Ventilation, AirConditionina and Dehumidifvina Systems dated January 1987.
1.3 PurDose. Policy and criteria included in this handbookare provided to ensure quality and consistency in design of HVACand dehumidifying systems with minimum life cycle costs whichsatisfy functional and operational requirements of Navalfacilities and which provide a healthy and safe environment forfacility occupants.
1.4 Policv. Design of HVAC and dehumidifying systems shallbe in accordance with guidelines included in this handbook. Thematerial included in Sections 5 through 12 of this handbook isprovided for information and should be applied only as requiredto supplement the experience of the designer or design reviewer.NAVFAC policy is to select simple, easy to maintain and operate,W A C systems designed based upon well established principles andconstructed of proven materials that satisfy space temperature,humidity, and indoor air quality (IAQ) requirements within energybudgets prescribed in MIL-HDBK-1190, Facilitv Plannina and DesianGuide. Use the following procedures for selection and design ofW A C systems:
a) Ensure that passive building design features, e.g.,building orientation, shading, building envelope, and insulation
are optimized to reduce heating and cooling loads. Such passivetechniques reduce the requirement to use complex, maintenanceintensive, W A C systems and equipment to meet the facility energybudget.
b) Place special emphasis on keeping W A C systems,including controls, simple and easy to operate and maintain.
Table 1, par. 2.4, and subparagraphs provide recommendations ontypes of air conditioning systems that should be considered forthe most common applications.recommended types should be selected based on functionalrequirements, ease of maintenance, and the design energy budget.For example, a system requiring extensive use of complexcontrolled devices and associated controls (e.g., complex heatrecovery systems) should only be considered when there are nopractical alternatives to obtain design energy budgets prescribed
The least complex of the

need early consideration by the design disciplines to achieve thebest overall design concept. Consider using ENVSTD 24, aDepartment of Energy (DOE) envelope system performance compliancecalculation program to assist the architect and mechanicalengineer to evaluate the proposed facilities’ compliance with
ASHRAE Standard 90.1, Enerav Efficient Desian of New BuildinasExcept Low-Rise Residential Buildinas, 10 CFR 435, andMIL-HDBK-1190 design energy targets. ENVSTD 24 is available onthe Construction Criteria Base (CCB) CD-ROM, or from ASHRAE orDOE.
2.1.2.3 Mechanical Svstem Selection. Life cycle cost analysisof candidate systems should be used to determine the best systemselection within the parameters cited in par. 1.4. Includeelectrical demand charges as well as energy charges in the
analysis.particular forms of energy or types of equipment, such as ice

Application of these techniques should only be considered whenrequired to meet the design energy budget and when operation andmaintenance are judged to be within the capability of localmaintenance personnel.
c) Thermal Storage. Due to the added complexity insystem operation and controls, only use thermal storage systemswhen required to meet the building energy budget and when provencost effective on a life cycle cost basis.
(1) Savings. Include demand charges, energycharges (energy cost may be lower when thermal storage is chargedoff peak), and savings in refrigeration equipment size reductionin the life cycle cost analysis. An electric rate structure witha high demand charge or with time-of-day metering rates providesthe best opportunity for savings on investment. Ensure that theanalysis includes the appropriate energy cost, e.g., billing for
electrical energy at a master meter vice the individual buildingmeter. If the station is master metered for consumers, additionof a single building may have no significant impact on the demandcharge, and additional energy used may be at the lowest availablerate. Other opportunities for savings include reduced cost forelectric service, increased efficiency of equipment operating atnight, and reduced cost for fire protection if water storage canbe integrated with thermal storage requirements.
(2) Equipment Selection. Packaged thermal storagesystems complete with controls are preferred over fieldfabricated systems.
2.2 EauiDment Selection
2.2.1 General. Determine the type of heating and coolingsystem to be used by the computer energy and life cycle costanalysis as described in MIL-HDBK-1190, Chapter 8. ApplicableNavy design manuals and guide specifications provide guidance onthe recommended classes of equipment to be evaluated for theparticular application and size range.
2.2.2 Heatins Ecniipment
2.2.2.1 Boiler Sizinq. Refer to MIL-HDBK-1003/6, CentralHeatins Plants and ASHRAE Handbook, Fundamentals for sizingboilers. Boiler sizing should consider:
a) Connected load, which includes the heating load,plus (where applicable) pipe loss and pickup, domestic hot water,process loads, and boiler plant auxiliaries.

2.2.3.1 General. Select air cooled equipment on the basis ofentering air at 5 degrees F above the design temperature as givenin NAVFAC P-89 for roof mounted equipment and for equipment incorrosive environments.
2.2.3.2 Packaaed DX EcruiDment. Multiple packaged DX equipmentshould only be used when it is shown to be life cycle costeffective for the application.
2.2.3.3 Central Chilled Water Eauiprnent
a) Use only one chiller for comfort coolingapplications unless it becomes economical to split capacity.Mission requirements may dictate the use of multiple units withcapacities determined by critical loads. Obtain approval for theuse of multiple units from the engineering field division (EFD)or engineering field activity (EFA).
b) Size units on the basis of acceptable refrigerantsspecified in NAVFAC guide specification (NFGS)-15652, CentralRefriaeration EauiDment for Air Conditioninq. Do not userefrigerants with an ozone depletion potential (ODP) greater than0.05 or a global warming potential (GWP) greater than 0.34.
c) Use centrifugal or rotary screw compressor chillersfor capacities greater than 120 tons.
d) Though air cooled chillers are less efficient thanwater cooled chillers, air cooled chillers require less
maintenance; this should be a consideration in the selection.
e) Water treatment of cooling towers and evaporativecondensers should be carefully considered. Continuous bleedingor dumping of water treated with chemicals to the sanitary orstorm sewer may be prohibited. Check with the localenvironmental program manager for use of wastewater and sanitarysewer systems.
2.2.3.4 Auxiliarv EauiDment - Coolinq
a) Condenser Heat Rejection. Heat can be rejectedfrom a condensing refrigerant to atmosphere with an evaporativecondenser, with a water-cooled condenser and a cooling tower,with an air-cooled condenser, or with closed ground-loop waterrejection. Do not use potable water for condenser heatrejection. Provide a three-way diverter valve to controlcondenser cooling water supply temperature.stream, or lake water should only be considered after evaluatingenvironmental impact of returning heated water and additional

b) It is too dangerous to allow untrained personnel todon SCBA equipment and venture into a known hazardous atmosphere.For that reason, the Navy has elected not to provide the SCBA,since there would be no control over who might don the SCBA andattempt to enter the room.
2.6 Radon Miticration Svstems. The following components ofa sub-slab depressurization system should be included in thedesign for buildings which will be constructed on sites known orsuspected of being a source of radon gas and which will beoccupied more than 4 hours a day:
a) Piping. Provide one 3-inch diameter polyvinylchloride (PVC) pipe (Schedule 20) through the floor slab forevery 1,000 square feet of slab area located as close to thecenter of the area as possible. See Figure 1 for floorpenetration detail. Pipe should extend through the building
roof, concealed in partitions, closets, store rooms, etc. Anadequate length of straight vertical piping should be provided inthe ceiling space below the roof for future installation of thedepressurization fan if post construction testing indicatesexcessive radon levels. Locating the fan near the roof orceiling establishes a negative pressure in the piping systemthereby minimizing potential of leaks in occupied spaces. Crackbetween pipe and slab should be sealed with polyurethane caulk.Evaluate the economic feasibility of combining several PVC pipesto reduce the number of risers and the number of roofpenetrations, especially for multi-story buildings.
b) Electrical Requirements. Provide a 110 volt, 15ampere electrical power supply terminating at convenientlocations near the location for the future depressurization fansin PVC pipe. Ensure convenient access to locations selected forfuture installation of depressurization fans.

3.18.5 Exhaust Hood Heat Recoverv. Heat recovery for kitchenexhaust hoods should only be considered for commercial sizekitchen when life cycle cost effective and when building designcannot meet the energy budget. Manufactured heat recoverymodules for commercial size kitchen hoods are available. Thesemodules typically use a heat pipe method of heat recovery, butseveral configurations are available. Also, heat exchangerequipment should be located at ground level for easy access toinspect, maintain, and remove for shop cleaning. The keyvariable for heat recovery feasibility is hours of operation.intermittently used exhaust may not have sufficient operatinghours for heat recovery to be cost effective.

3.18.6 Air Curtains. Air curtains designed as fly screensshall be provided on exterior entrances to food preparationareas, but they shall not be required if the entrance is to beused only as an emergency exit. When air curtains are mounted in
locations significantly above normal door heights, curtain airvelocities and noise levels shall be verified by the designer.Evaluate the feasibility of using air curtains for conditionedarea openings to loading docks or similar service areas. Formore information, refer to ASHRAE Handbook series.
3.19 Laundries
a) Due to high heat releases from processingequipment, laundries generally do not require space heatingsystems where minimum ambient winter temperature is above 50degrees F. For lower ambient temperatures, provide unit heatersto maintain space temperatures above 40 degrees F during
unoccupied periods. Unit heaters can be direct fuel fired(vented) type or steam or hot water coil type.
b) Ventilation cooling is generally required yeararound during occupied periods. Provide 30 air changes per hourfor temperate zones and 60 air changes per hour in tropic andsemi-tropic zones. For winter design temperatures below 50degrees F, ventilation air should be tempered. If life cyclecost effective, heat recovery from exhaust air is the preferredmethod of tempering makeup air using one of the systemsillustrated in Figures A-4 through A - 8 .of tempering include direct fired duct heaters and steam or hot
water coils with full flow through the coils and face and bypassdampers for temperature control. Provide a low limit thermostatin the discharge from the coil to stop the fan for freezeprotection.
Other acceptable methods
c) Spot cooling can be provided for fixed stationssuch as ironers, presses, and mangles. Evaporative cooling canbe an effective means of cooling air in most geographic areas.Consider supplying air at the operator's feet with airdistribution below a raised platform; provide individual operatorcontrol of air supply.

Section 5: LOAD CALCULATIONS
5.1 General. Refer to par. 2.1.1.2 for the selection ofoutdoor and indoor design conditions. Manual procedures providedbelow for determining heating and cooling loads are generallyonly applicable to small systems (e.g., heating systems less than200,000 Btu per hour and cooling systems less than 10 tons).Computer programs are available that will provide more preciseload determinations and the time of day with the highest coolingload.dawn; therefore, this should be considered in the design heatingload.
The highest heating load is assumed to occur just before
5.2 Heatins Load
5.2.1 Transmission
EQUATION: Q = U * A * (!ri T ~ ) 1)
where: Q = Btu/hr heat loss by transmission,
U = heat transfer coefficient (look this up in ahandbook for your particular wall, floor, roof, etc.),
A = area of the surface (wall, window, roof, etc.),
Ti = inside design temperature, and
To = outside design temperature.
Use this formula to compute heat transmission lossesfrom each element of the building skin (e.g., walls, windows,roof, etc.). Note that attic and crawl space and groundtemperature are different from outdoor temperatures.
5.2.2 Infiltration and Ventilation. To determine the heatingload use the larger of the infiltration and ventilation loads.Outdoor air provided for ventilation should exceed the airexhausted by 10 to 15 percent to minimize infiltration. Thedesigner must use judgment on the amount of excess supply air to
include based on number and type of windows and doors.
EQUATION: Q = 1.10 * CFM * (Ti - To) (2)
where: CFM = cubic feet per minute of outdoor air, and
Q = the sensible heat loss, Btu/hr.

This section does not apply to industrial ventilationsystems, e.g., systems to control fumes, vapors, and dust fromsuch processes as plating, painting, welding, and woodworking.Refer to the MIL-HDBK-1003/17 and ASHRAE Handbook, W A C Svstemsand ADDlications, for guidance on design of these systems. The
EFD or EFA and the Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center(NFESC) can provide additional assistance.
5.2.3 Total Heatina Load. Sum the transmission loads withinfiltration and ventilation loads to get the total heating load.To this computed total heating load, add the following to sizecentral equipment (do not apply these factors when sizingterminal equipment such a finned-tube radiation, fan-coil units,etc.):
a) Exposure factor (prevailing wind side) up to 15
percent.
b) Pickup (for intermittently heated buildings withprimary heat sources such as boilers, steam-to-water heatexchangers, etc.) 10 percent.
c) Buildings with night setback. A residence with 10degrees F setback requires 30 percent oversizing for acceptancepickup and minimum energy requirements.
5 .3 Coolina Load. Computation of the peak cooling load canbe a difficult effort. Heat gain is composed of or influenced bythe conduction heat gain through opaque portions of the buildingskin; the conduction plus solar radiation through windows andskylights; the building internal loads such as people, lights,equipment, motors, appliances, and devices; and outdoor air loadfrom infiltration. For sizing VAV systems, calculation of loadshas more stringent requirements. Refer to Appendix C .

6.1.1 Sizina General. See Figure 2 for duct sizing. ASHRAE
Handbook, Fundamentals recognizes three methods of sizingductwork: the equal friction method, the static regain method,and the T-method. For design of small simple systems, the equal
friction method will suffice. Use the static regain method forVAV design (refer to Appendix C ) .
6.1.2 Eaual Friction Method Sizinq. Select a constantpressure loss in inches of water per 100 foot length of duct fromthe preferred part of Figure 2.is between 0.08 and 0.6 inches of water per 100 feet frictionl o s s for air quantities up to 18,000 cfm, and between 1800 fpmand 4000 fpm for air quantities greater than 18,000 cfm. Use low
velocities and a low friction drop for small projects, or whereductwork is cheap and energy is expensive. For systems of 18,000
cubic feet per minute and over, use a friction loss of 0.08 andvelocities of 1800 to 3000 feet per minute. After sizing theentire system at the selected unit pressure drop, go back andadjust velocities and pressure drops in the shorter branches toequalize the pressure drops at each duct branch junction.designer must observe the recommended permissible room soundpressure levels for various applications discussed in NFGS-15895,Ductwork and Ductwork Accessories.

In some parts of the country the sheet metalsubcontractor can make or buy metal ducts made on an automaticmachine at competitive prices.
6.1.3.7 Balancina DamDers for W A C . Provide balancing damperson duct branches and show dampers on drawings. See Figure 3 for
damper installation. Use extractors or volume dampers instead ofsplitter dampers at branch connections. Do not use splitterdampers since they make ductwork more difficult to balance than ajob with volume dampers. Provide access in the ceiling and
clamping quadrants for dampers or use a type with a remotecontrol that extends through the ceiling.should be located away from the intake louver and after the ducttransition to minimize exposure to weather and oversizing of

6.5 Louvers
a) Louvers are used to admit supply air, dischargeexhaust air, or admit return air to the ductwork system.these are detailed on architectural drawings and installed underarchitectural sheet metal because the architectural designerwants to control the esthetics of the building exterior.Consider the following in placement of intake louvers so theyare
Often
(1) Not exposed to blowing dust, driving rain,high winds, auto exhaust fumes (loading docks), embanked snow, orfalling leaves.
(2) Away from known odors, airborne contaminants,cooling towers, and industrial exhaust stacks (25 foot minimum).
( 3 ) Away from building entrances where radiatednoise from the fan equipment could be annoying.
( 4 ) Away from building exhaust air, buildingplumbing vents, and odors from kitchen hood exhausts, andlaboratory exhausts.
b) In the design of louver blades, a proper compromise
must be made between maximum net free area and trapping ofwindblown rain. See Figure 9 for a typical rain resistantlouver.
c) Keep air velocities low through louver intakes toavoid noise and excessive pressure drops.based on the percent of free flow area for the louver and thepressure drop through insect and bird screens.
Compute pressure drop
d) For industrial ventilation systems with fume hoods,makeup air should be introduced through a perforated ceiling,ceiling panels, or perforated ducts to distribute the airuniformly throughout the room.

Section 7: PIPING SYSTEMS
7.1 General
7.1.1 Pix>ins Desian Factors. Consider the choice betweensteel and copper piping based on estimated initial cost and lifecycle cost of each installation. For a safe pressure of pipingand fittings corresponding to working pressure and temperature,refer to ASME B31.1, Power PiDinq. See Table 8.
Copper piping cannot be corroded by fluorinatedhydrocarbon refrigerants, even when this liquid is mixed withmoisture. Copper is entirely free of scaling effects. However,steel pipe and fittings are less expensive than copper piping fornon-refrigerant systems with larger pipe sizes.
7.1.2 PiDe Friction Loss. For pipe friction loss, see
Figures 11 through 13 for water flow and Figures 18 through 21for steam flow.
7.1.3 System Pressure Loss. Piping system pressure losscalculations shall include the following considerations:
a) Pipe friction based on 10-year-old pipe;
b) Pressure loss of valves, fittings, and otherassociated equipment;
c) Equipment pressure loss;

7.2.2.3 Emansion Tanks and Air SeDarator
a) Expansion Tanks General. When water in a hot waterheating system is heated, water expands and occupies more volume.System pressure control is needed to:
(1)the allowable working pressure.
Limit pressure in all parts of the system to
( 2 ) Maintain minimum pressure in the system toprevent pump cavitation and to prevent boiling of system water.
( 3 ) Minimize addition of makeup water.
b) Expansion Tank With Air Separator. An expansiontank with an air separator performs these system pressure controlfunctions. Since this section does not address medium
temperature hot water system (250 to 350 degrees F) or hightemperature hot water system (above 350 degrees F); discussionwill be limited to the following types of tanks:
(1) Closed expansion tanks with an air cushion.See Figure 14.
(2) Diaphragm (or bladder) type closed expansiontanks. See Figure 15.
Open expansion tanks located at the system high point
will also work on low temperature hot water systems, but are notgenerally used on Navy building projects.
c) Expansion Tanks. Some specifics regardingexpansion tanks are as follows:

( 2 ) Locate the tank on the suction side of thesystem pump so that system pressure is always positive withrespect to atmospheric pressure.
(3) Do not install a shutoff valve between theheat source and the expansion tank.
(4) Refer to ASHRAE Handbook, W A C Svstems andApplication or manufacturer's literature for tank sizing.
(5) See Figure 14 for closed expansion tankplacement.
(6) See Figure 15 for diaphragm expansion tankplacement.
(7) Do not use a gage glass on the expansion tank.
A gage glass on a steam boiler is permitted since the wet steamvapor keeps the upper glass packing tight. With an expansiontank, the air will dry out the upper gage glass packing and causeair leaks.

If heated by the space
b) If the space heating boiler provides hot water,evaluate if it should be an instantaneous heater, a semi-instantaneous heater, or a storage type hot water generator. The
selection will affect the boiler capacity specified. Refer toNAVFAC DM-3-01, lumbins Svstems for domestic hot water systemdesign.
With these decisions made, select the hot water systemand equipment. See Figure 16 and Figure 17.

7 . 2 . 2 . 6 PumDs. In hydronic systems that are larger thanresidential size, a two pipe system with a circulating pump isrequired to make the heating system responsive to load changes.Note the following:
a) Provide a pressure gage on each side of the pump,or a differential gage connected between pump suction anddischarge to facilitate system balancing.
b) Provide flow gages in the branches of multizonesystems to facilitate balancing.
c) Provide gate valves and unions or flanges on inletand outlet piping to equipment to expedite future removal andrepairs.
d) Provide strainers on the suction side of the pump.
e) Do not overestimate the pumping head on the pump.A conservative overestimation of the head can result in the pumpdelivering more than the required gpm and thereby requiring morehorsepower than estimated. There are three solutions to this:
(1) Specify a pump that is non-overloading,
(2) Show a throttling valve in the pump dischargeto increase the head if needed, and
( 3 ) Remove the impeller and machine it to reducecapacity

7.3 Steam
7.3.1 General. Low pressure steam in HVAC systems is definedas 15 psi or less. High pressure steam in W A C systems isdefined as being 16 psi to 150 psi. There is a trend away from
using direct steam in W A C systems. If one gets heat fromdistrict steam or a steam boiler, the designer will often convertthe steam to hot water through a heat exchanger to supply theHVAC system. The reasons for using hot water WA C systemsinclude the following:
a) Eliminates maintenance of many steam traps.
b) More flexible when planning temperature controls.

7.3.2.1 PiDe Sizinq. Pipe sizing for low pressure steam andreturn mains is found in A S H m Handbook, Fundamentals. SeeTables 10 through 13. Note the following:
a) Slope steam mains in the direction of the flow(M inch in 10 feet is recommended).
b) Slope return mains similarly.
c) Avoid lifts on low pressure returns, or make themsmall.
d) Pumped returns are preferred to gravity returns.
e) Provide a step-up and drip at the base of steamrisers.
f) Drip the low point if steam flow is against thecondensate flow and upsize piping to the next larger size toallow condensate to run back in the bottom of the steam pipe.
7.3.3 Hiah Pressure Steam Svstems
7.3.3.1 PiDe Sizinq. Refer to par. 7.3.2.1. Note thefollowing:

b) Do not use vacuum condensate returns. Since high pressure steam
is hotter than low pressure steam, provide adequate cooling legs of
uninsulated steam pipe or a length of finned radiation between the last steam
main takeoff and the drip assembly. Failure to do this will cause the hot
condensate to flash back into steam at the trap. Use vented flash tank as asolution. Refer to par. 7.3.3.5 for condensate pumps and flash tank.
7.3.3.2 Boiler. Refer to MIL-HDBK-1003/6.
7.3.3.3 Heat Exchanger. Refer to par. 7.2.2.5.
7.3.3.4 Steam Pressure Regulating Valves. See Figures 22 and 23 for piping
of steam pressure regulating assemblies, and note the following:
a) Sizing Pressure Regulating Valves
(1) Analyze flow required for maximum and minimum demand.
(2) Size the pressure regulating valve to handle peak flow.
This will generally result in a valve body that is smaller than inlet supplyline size.
(3) If there is a big turndown ratio between minimum and
maximum flow, consider using two regulator valves in parallel, perhaps sizedfor 30 percent and 70 percent of the flow. Consider to flip the settings sothat the small regulator pilot maintains optimum downstream pressure in the
summer and the big regulator pilot is the lead controller in the winter.
(4) Look at the manufacturer’s tables to see whether a two
stage assembly should be used with two regulators in series. Sometimes thisis done anyway for redundancy in low pressure installations; with the
downstream regulator controlling to 5 psi, and a upstream regulator set at 7
psi in case the downstream regulator cannot handle a flow surge.
b) Piping Pressure Regulating Valves
(i) Provide a bypass around the regulator with a globe valve
that has a tight shutoff seat. Size bypass to flow less than wide open
failure flow of the regulator, but not less than regulator design flow.

7.3.3.5 Condensate Pumps and Flash Tank. Higher pressure steamcondensate is hotter than low pressure steam condensate. If thesystem is over 40 psi steam, always run the condensate through aflash tank before entering the receiver of the condensate pumpset. This prevents the condensate flashing to steam in thepumps. See Figure 24.

7.3.5 Freezing of Steam Coils - General. Care should be taken in bothdesign and construction of systems with steam heating coils to prevent coilfreeze-up. TWO primary causes of coil freeze-up are: (1) stratification ofthe air entering the coil due to poor mixing of outside air and return air,
and ( 2 ) buildup of condensate in the coil. While it is virtually impossible
to design a system with freeze-proof coils, careful consideration in thefollowing areas could air in minimizing coil freezing problems.
7.3.5.1 Freezing Due to Air Stratification. See Figure 29. In general,outside air and return air are mixed in proportions that will provide an
average mixed air temperature above freezing. However, if the outside air andreturn air streams are not thoroughly mixed, stratification of air can occuracross the coil.

There are a
These oversights
a) Inappropriate Coil Selection. Many coil designspromote steam short circuiting - a phenomenon where steam takesthe path of least resistance through coil tubes that have theleast condensate flow. This increases the coil return headerpressure to the point where the condensate in other coil tubescannot drain properly.
minimize problems like this. The single row distribution tubeand multi-row series flow coils minimize the potential forshort-circuiting and trapping condensate inside the coil. Thesecoil designs should be considered when designing a system wherethere is substantial risk of coil freezing.
Coil designs have been developed to help
b) Improper Installation. Even though the proper coilis selected, where the coil is not installed properly, freezingcan still occur. Many coils are installed in such a way thatgravity drainage is not possible. Though initially installedproperly, coils can move into an undesirable position throughbuilding settling or weakening of supports.coil installations with these problems in mind can help avoidproblems in this area.
Closely inspecting
c) Improper Venting, Vacuum Elimination, and SteamTrapping Practices. If a coil is not designed for proper ventingof noncondensables, vacuum elimination, and condensate removal, awell selected and installed coil can still experience problemswith condensate buildup. Consider carefully proper steam pipingpractices in these areas and consult available Navy and industryguidance.
d) Modulating Valves. Avoid using modulating valvesfor control of preheat coils.
e) Traps. Trap each coil separately. Coils seldomhave equal pressure drops.

7.3.6 Refriaerant Pipinq
7.3.6.1 General. This military handbook covers only directexpansion systems for W A C systems. There is an entire ASHRAEHandbook devoted to food and industrial refrigeration.
Refrigerant piping is slightly different from other pipingbecause refrigerant gas is difficult to contain, so that specialfittings (wrought copper or forged brass) and high melting pointsolder (1,000degrees F) are needed to achieve a tight system,
and provision must be made to ensure oil return to thecompressor.
7.3.6.2 Sizinq. See the ASHRAE Handbook, Refriseration forflow rate charts on sizing the liquid, suction, and hot gas lineswith various refrigerants.
7.3.6.3 Arranaement. See Figures 31 and 32 for refrigerant
piping arrangement.

Section 8: CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTATION
8.1 General Reauirements. See pars. 2 . 2 . 6 and 2.2.8 for anoverview of temperature controls and instrumentation. Anothersource of assistance that the designer may use is NFESC, Code
ESC23 at Port Hueneme, California. NFESC is a Navy organizationthat has expertise in direct digital control (DDC) applications.
8.1.1 Choice of Controls. DDC is the control system ofchoice for WA C systems.and major renovation projects. Older conventional controlsystems may be specified for small buildings where DDC is notcost effective or where the customer refuses to accept DDC.of pneumatic controllers is discouraged because of the highmaintenance required to keep them functional.operators may be reused, if in good operating condition, as part
of a hybrid system with DDC sensors and controllers and the
pneumatic operators.

8.1.1.1 A Guide to Choose Control Svstems. Consider thefollowing when selecting the type of control system (digital,
electric, analog electronic, or pneumatic):
a) Life cycle cost. In most cases, DDC will be thelowest cost on a life cycle cost basis. The first cost of DDC andconventional control systems may be comparable but DDC operatingand maintenance costs are significantly lower.
b) Customer preference of control type. The customer
may feel that his personnel are better qualified to operate andmaintain a particular type control system. Repair parts may be
an important consideration.
8.1.1.2 Factors to Select Control Svstems. Control selectionmay be determined by several factors as follows:
a) DDC systems use stand-alone digital controllers,distributed throughout the building to provide control of W A Cfunctions.controllers, thermostats, switches, relays, and auxiliarydevices.which performs the control logic in software, and outputs a
control signal directly to the actuator or relay. Terminal
control units control individual terminal WA C equipment, such as
VAV boxes, fan coil units, and heat pumps. Distributed controlrefers to locating the digital controllers near the equipmentbeing controlled.
The digital controller replaces conventional receiver

b) DDC systems require less maintenance thanconventional control systems. With a personal controller (PC)interface workstation, W A C mechanics can quickly troubleshootHVAC problems.systems by providing accurate sensing, maintaining setpoints, andoperating in the designed sequence.
DDC systems efficiently operate building W A C
c) One disadvantage of DDC is that DDC systems fromdifferent manufacturers have different operating systems whichare proprietary and will not communicate with each other. Insome cases, this makes competitive bids for additions difficult.
d) Consider specifying DDC in the followingsituations:
(1) In most new construction,
(2) In a major retrofit of W A C systems,
(3) When complex or numerous HVAC systems areincluded in the design,
( 4 ) In buildings over 2 0 , 0 0 0 square feet,
( 5 ) When remote or local workstation monitoringand troubleshooting of HVAC equipment is desired, and
(6) When the customer desires DDC.
e) Acceptance of DDC by the user's operation andmaintenance personnel is extremely important. if not soaccepted, DDC should not be specified. The project managershould directly contact station personnel to make thisdetermination of acceptance.
f) Consider conventional electric, analog electronic,or pneumatic control systems when the following apply:
(1) Small buildings where DDC is not costeffective,
(2)
(3) When the customer or maintenance will not
When package air handling units are specified,and
support DDC.

a) Each controller shall be configured for itsspecified service. Verify each sequence of operation for eachW A C system and subsystem. Verify that each controlled deviceresponds to the proper controller, in the proper manner, and atthe proper time. Verify the fail-safe position for eachcomponent of the system.
b) Set the time schedule of controllers in accordancewith the sequence of operation and the established time schedule.
8.6.4 Svstem Dvnamic Checkout. Perform weather-dependenttest procedures that cannot be performed by simulation in theappropriate climatic season. When simulation is used, verify theactual results in the appropriate season.
a) Use the controllers' manual-automatic switches asthe means of manipulating control devices such as dampers andvalves to check operation and to effect stable conditions, priorto making measurement checks.
b) Perform a controller tuning procedure, which shallconsist of setting the initial proportional, integral, and
derivative (PID) mode constants, controller setpoints, andlogging the settings. Tuning shall be self-tuning operation bythe controller unless manual tuning is necessary.
8.6.4.1 Controller Manual-Tunincr Procedure. A controllermanual tuning procedure is described in three steps using aconstant temperature setpoint controller as an example.
a) Step 1. This step shall consist of the following:
(1) Index the controller manual-automatic switch
to the automatic position, and set the integral and derivativemode constants to zero.
(2) Set the proportional mode constant to aninitial setting of 8 percent.degree F or a 1.5 psig per degree F proportional controlleroutput change for a 100-degree F span. This causes thecontroller output signal to vary from zero output to full outputfor an input signal change representing an 8-degree F change.
This corresponds to a 2.0 ma per

(3) Controllers for other variables, such asrelative humidity and static pressure, shall have theirproportional mode constants set initially in a similar manner foran achievable output range proportional to the transmitter span.
b) Step 2. This step shall consist of the following:
(1) Set the controller temperature setpoint at anyObserve the controller output andchievable temperature.
transmitter input.
(2) If the transmitter input continuouslyoscillates above and below the setpoint without settling at afixed value, or if such oscillation increases, the proportionalmode constant is too small.
( 3 ) If the proportional mode constant is too
small, increase it in steps until the transmitter input indicatesstable control at any temperature, if the controller output isnot at either extreme of the output range.
(4) If the temperature control point slowly driftstoward or away from the controller setpoint, the proportionalmode constant is too large. Decrease its setting in steps untiloscillations occur as described in the preceding paragraphs, andthen increase the setting until stable control occurs.
(5) Introduce a step change in controllersetpoint. This should cause the controller to overshoot the
setpoint slightly, with each subsequent overshoot peak valuedecreasing by a factor of two-thirds until stable control isachieved at, above, or below the setpoint.
(6) Increase the integral mode constant setting insmall steps, and introduce setpoint changes until control pointand controller setpoint coincide at stable control. This shouldhappen consistently after a setpoint change within a short time,such as 5 to 10 minutes.
c) Step 3 . This step shall consist of the following:
(1) Unless the WA C process variable changesrapidly, the derivative mode constant setting can remain at zero.
This is usually the case for most WAC applications.
(2) If derivative control is needed, graduallyincrease the derivative mode constant.

Section 9: EQUIPMENT LOCATION
9.1 General. Sometimes a building designer will seekclever ways to hide mechanical equipment rather than integratingit into the building in a way that will best serve the Navy overthe life of the building. Although information and suggestions
on equipment locations are found throughout this handbook, it wasdeemed appropriate to repeat some of this pertinent data withinthis section.
9.2 SDecific Considerations
9.2.1 Noise. Will the noise from the equipment affect theuse and occupancy of the building? Consider the following:
a) Certain types of HVAC equipment will emit a lot ofnoise.
equipment. install chillers in a sub-room and enclose this roomwith masonry walls so that there is enough mass to attenuate theradiated noise.operators will not have to wear earmuffs all day to meet OSHA andNavy noise exposure criteria.room most of the time.
Centrifugal chillers are one type of noise emitting
The reason for a separate room is so that the
They can stay out of the chiller
b) Will objectionable levels of noise leak out andbother other occupants of the building or neighborhood?classic example of this is a noisy cooling tower that runs allnight long and keeps the nearby housing residents awake.clock on the mechanical system can sometimes help this problem.
Another example would be a noisy air handler located above a hungceiling that radiates sound downward into an occupied space(perhaps the base commander's office).

9 .2 .2 Access for ODerations and Maintenance
a) is it a major building demolition effort to repairor replace W A C equipment?
b) Is it a major effort for the rigger to moveequipment out to the street for repair?
c) Design systems for ease of maintenance. Is it easyfor the HVAC mechanic to get to the equipment? Must the W A Cmechanic crawl, set up ladders, use alouver, remove access panels, walk ona rope to pull up his tools? Can thereplacement piping, pull the filters,

9 . 2 . 4 Emission of Odors. A common source of odor is akitchen range hood from a side wall outlet. Consider the geometryof the site and adjacent buildings, both existing and proposed,for planning intakes and exhaust points. Review 10 year base mapplan for future building locations. Sometimes the kitchenexhaust can be run up a shaft and exhausted above the roof.
Another helpful way to minimize the problem is to use a washdownkitchen hood to reduce the odor.
Another source of odor is the pathological wasteincinerator at a hospital.with after burners create problems when burning tissue.solution is to transport the pathological waste to a remoteincinerator site for burning.
Even the newer types of incinerators

Use this philosophy when planning laboratory exhaustand outside air building intakes. Try point source containmentor neutralization of noxious exhausts at the hoods or exhaust
points or put stacks on the exhaust ducts.

Vibration isolators are notalways a solution to this problem. Analytical tools areavailable to help solve vibration problems.can be retained to study vibration problems and providesolutions. This kind of equipment could be installed on the
basement floor slab or located elsewhere. Another possiblesolution is to change the equipment vibration frequency by
providing a concrete pad under the machine to eliminate itsharmonics.

A-2-05 Heat Recoverv Svstems (Cascadina Eneraies) Considerthe following economic factors when evaluating heat recoverysystems
a) Higher first costs,
b) Higher maintenance costs,
c) Additional building space requirements, and
d) Added complication to W A C equipment.
A-3-00 Exhaust Air Heat Recoverv. With the air exhaust heatrecovery system in the heating mode, heat from exhaust air is
recovered and used to preheat the outdoor air supply, domestichot water, boiler combustion air, and boiler makeup water. Inthe cooling mode, exhaust air is used to pre-cool outdoor air.In addition to the economic factors cited above, system pressureis increased. The five methods available for exhaust air heatrecovery air are as follows:
a) Rotary air wheel method,
b) Static heat exchanger method,
c) Heat pipe method,
d) Runaround system/closed loop method, and
e) Runaround system/open loop method.
The rotary air wheel, static heat exchanger, and heatpipe methods require supply and exhaust ducts to be adjacent
ducts. Therefore, duct design should ensure that the outside airand exhaust air louvers are adequately separated to prevent crosscontamination. Do not use rotary air wheel for industrial
ventilating systems because of contamination carryover. For moreinformation, refer to ASHRAE EauiDment Handbook, the chapterentitled "Air-to-Air Energy Recovery Equipment."

See Figure
Plate heat exchangers are 40 to 80 percent efficient inrecovering heat, depending on the specific system design,temperature differences, and flow rates. Crossflow methods areusually more convenient, but counterflow methods are moreefficient. With the plate exchanger method, only sensible heatis transferred. Plate heat exchanger is a static device havingno moving parts, allowing for only a minimal chance of crosscontamination. It is a relatively simple method of heatrecovery.
A-3.03 Heat Pipe Method. The heat pipe method involves aself-contained, closed system which transfers sensible heat.
This method consists of bundles of finned copper tubes, similarto cooling coils, sealed at each and filled with a wick andworking fluid. The working fluid may be water, refrigerant, ormethanol.
For the most efficient system, the exhaust and supplyair shall be counterflow.sloping the heat pipe so the warm side is lower than the cool
side. See Figure A-6. For more information refer to ASHRAEEauipment Handbook, the chapter entitled "Air-to-Air EnergyRecovery Equipment. I
Performance also is improved by
A-3.04 Runaround System (Closed Loop) Method. With the closedloop systems method, a hydronic system transfers sensible heat
from the exhaust air to the outdoor air using water, glycol, orsome other sensible heat fluid. See Figure A-7.

A-3.08 Heat-of-Lisht Heat Recoverv Method. The sensible heatgiven off by the lighting fixtures is a large portion of thetotal cooling load. Recovery of this heat reduces energy usageboth by reducing the room cooling load and by recovering usableheat. In some instances, the efficient removal of heat-of-lightthat does not enter the room may reduce the air supply to the
room below that which is desirable. Verify that effective aircirculation is maintained.recovery are the light troffer and induced air methods. Wherelife cycle cost effective, use heat-of-light recovery method inair conditioned spaces. Do not use for clean rooms, animallaboratories, and laboratories with toxic, explosive, orbacteriological exhaust requirements.
Recommended methods of heat-of-light
A-3.09 Licrht Troffer Method. The light troffer method removes
space air by pulling it through a light troffer or through alight fixture, and transfers it into the ceiling plenum where itis routed into the return air system. See Figure A-9. With thissystem, the room cooling load is reduced. Also, less air isrequired to cool the room, making it possible to use smaller ductand fan systems. Do not use for VAV systems.
With this method, the total cooling load issubstantially reduced for outdoor air supply systems, but not assignificantly for systems not capable of providing 100 percentoutdoor air. This technique also reduces the luminaire surfacetemperature and, therefore, increases ballast and lamp life.
A-3. O Induced Air Method. The induced air method removes airfrom the space by pulling it through the light troffer or througha lighting fixture, and transfers it into the ceiling plenum, tobe recirculated or discharged outdoors. See Figure A-10.
A-3.11 Refriseration Heat Recoverv Method. The refrigerationheat recovery method uses heat rejected from the refrigerationmachine. This method uses four different techniques:
a) Conventional refrigeration machine method,
b) Heat pump method,
c) Single condenser water circuit method, and
d) Double condenser water circuit method,

The refrigeration heat recovery method is suitable whena refrigeration-type compressor is used, and when simultaneousheating and cooling of one or more spaces is required.
A-3.12 Conventional Refriaeration Machine Method. Theconventional refrigeration machine method uses a direct expansioncooling coil in conjunction with either a hot water orrefrigerant coil. See Figure A-11 and Figure A-12.
A hot water heating system extracts heat from therefrigerant through a heat exchanger. For direct air heating, acondensing refrigerant coil is used instead of a heat exchangerand water pump. This method is used for lower capacity systemswith reciprocating compressors. An air-cooled condenser is usedto reject heat when space heating is not required.
A-3-13 Internal Source Heat Pump Method. See Figure A-13.
A-3-14 Sinsle Bundle Condenser Water Circuit Method. Thesingle bundle condenser water circuit method uses a cooling coilin conjunction with a hot water system for heat recovery.space heating is not required, heat is rejected through anevaporative cooler, a heat exchanger, and an open cooling tower.
When
Application of this system is limited to a maximumwater temperature of 110 degrees F. This system can be used withany compressor type. See Figure A-14.
A-3-15 Double Bundle Condenser Water Circuit Method. Thedouble bundle condenser water circuit method incorporates twoseparate condenser water circuits - one for the heating systemand one for the cooling tower system.125 degrees F can be obtained by using higher compressor speeds,larger impellers, or more than one stage. See Figure A-15.

Scor>e and Criteria. This appendix is intended for useby qualified engineers who are responsible for preparation andreview of plans and specifications for construction of VAV, WAC,and dehumidifying systems. It complements the requirements ofNAVFACENGCOM and DOD manuals and instructions for theconstruction of W A C systems. The designer is reminded thatnormal construction and maintenance problems encountered with all
types of W A C systems are not covered here, but should be fullyconsidered in the design.

and Marine Corps personnel.life cycle cost of the facilities, but also to maximize theperformance of the people who use the facilities.offer enhanced comfort by allowing economical flexibility inzoning, better temperature control, better passive humiditycontrol at part load, and greater energy efficiency.

This appendix is intended to provide feedback toalert the designer to recognize those areas where carefulattention can prevent deficiencies commonly found in Navy VAVsystems.
Importance of Design. Navy VAV systems often do not
a) VAV systems incur problems for the same basicreasons that other types of air conditioning systems do. Theyare either improperly designed, constructed, or operated andmaintained.
b) Deficiencies in design often result from bothtechnical and practical aspects of the design.
practical decisions often occur in the following areas: (1) lackof consideration of the constructability of the design,
( 2 ) failure to appreciate the importance of designing systemsthat can be operated and maintained, and (3) failure tocommunicate in sufficient detail the design intent and thusleaving too many decisions to the contractor.

(at least for nightpurging); the sensible heat ratio is high and systems are oftendesigned primarily to handle the sensible load and to let theroom relative humidity float as it will. Naval facilitieslocated in dry and cold climates may require modifications to thecriteria listed below.
C-l. 7 Selection of n/r,e of Control Svstem. Design controlsystems as simple as possible to provide adequate control andgive careful consideration to the following when selecting thetype of control system:
a) Pneumatic Controls. Pneumatic controls seldom workconsistently well in Naval facilities. Pneumatic controlsrequire frequent maintenance and calibration at a level that isnot usually performed by Naval personnel. Pneumatic systems areprone to fail from water or oil in the compressed air.pneumatic control systems are never set up properly by theinstalling contractor. Even hybrid control systems (e.g., DDCwith pneumatic actuators) can have similar problems because theelectric-to-pneumatic transducers have small passages that arevulnerable to moisture and oil in the compressed air.things being equal, pneumatic control is not a good choice forthe control system; but if operation and maintenance personnel
are expert in pneumatic controls, have adequate funds formaintenance, and refuse to use state-of-art systems, pneumaticsystems may be justified.

b) Electric Control. For the sake of simplicity,electric VAV terminal unit controls may be used in conjunctionwith pressure dependent (PD) terminal units (refer topar. C-2.10). This type of zone temperature control requiresonly the simplest of control sequences and therefore, will beeasier for Naval operation and maintenance personnel tounderstand and maintain. Electric controls for the central
equipment (e.g., HW valve and control, etc.) are in common useand are suitably rugged, however, may not be accurate enough forthe application.
c) Analog Electronic Control. If pressure independent(PI) terminal units are used, it will be necessary to haveelectronic controls. Analog electronics usually introduceadditional levels of complexity whose advantages can beoutweighed by the likelihood that they will not be understood by

feature can save a lot of energy in many applications but thedesigner must confer with the appropriate NAVFACENGCOM EFD or EFAwhen using this design.

The best that can be done is to maintain a constantventilation airflow on a per air handling unit basis andrecognize that ventilation will be improved in any zone that isshorted by mixing between rooms (especially in zones wherefan-powered boxes are used) and shorted rooms tend to be thosewhere people and lights are not present, and thus the ventilation

APPENDIX C (Continued)
To maintain a constant outside air quantity being drawnin and supplied by the M U , a separate outside air injection fanor PI VAV box should be used. Use of an injection fan is
encouraged rather than a PI VAV box because it is a more reliablemethod of providing constant ventilation from a simplicity andmaintainability viewpoint. The designer should be aware that PIunits rarely work properly in Navy installations because ofmaintenance problems with PI velocity sensing hardware/controls.Properly working PI units, however, would be a more accuratemeans of providing a constant flow throughout a given range ofmixing box pressures. A PI unit should be considered if therange of mixing box pressures expected is such that it would bedifficult to specify a fan which would deliver acceptable flowsthroughout the range of pressure.
c-2.10 Pressure Dependent (PD) Boxes. The use of PD VAV boxesrather than PI boxes is recommended. Feedback: PI velocityresetting controls are often a significant contributor to failureof Navy VAV systems.units to use in a system, give careful consideration of thefollowing feedbacks:
When determining the type of VAV terminal
a) The most important feature touted for PI units isthat they respond to fluctuations in system pressure and thusenhance control stability by reducing "hunting." However, whenthe supply duct system has been properly designed for staticregain, there is no clear evidence that the use of PI units
results in greater zone temperature control stability than whenusing PD units. The transfer functions and time constants in atypical VAV unit control are such that the potential benefits ofvelocity resetting are nullified by the disadvantages of theadditional and complicated control loop.
b) PI controls claim to render the whole systemvirtually self-balancing. However, in a system with PD controlsand a well designed static regain duct system, the VAV dampers
respond to changes in load sensed by the thermostat and respondto balance the air in a similar way.
c) Maximum and minimum airflow limiting is a featurethat is inherent with PI control units. However, there is somequestion as to how well the velocity sensors used for thispurpose actually measure flow (setpoints are at the extreme lowend of their range). Some manufacturers say the velocity loop
readily drifts out of calibration and must be auto-calibratedregularly by using a DDC system.airflow.

accurate only down to about 400 fpm (which unfortunately might beas high as 33 to 50 percent of maximum flow in many cases).Since desired minimum flow will usually be less than this, thedifferential pressure PI is not accurate for controlling minimumflow. The other common method uses a hot wire anemometer orsimilar device for sensing. This is not very good because thesensor is a single point in the inlet duct rather than amulti-point device (as used by the flow ring described above).it would only be accurate for a box that had many diameters ofstraight duct upstream (not the usual case). In addition, theresponse time is too slow for good PI control.
d) Minimum flow can be set on PD units by installingmechanical stops, by setting the actuator stroke through linkageadjustments, or by other similar means. These are
straightforward testing and balancing procedures.
e) PI costs somewhat more than PD on the average, ismuch more complicated for maintenance personnel, and theadditional control components are more prone to failure.
f) If PI is used, however, the designer must becareful to specify that supply maximums and minimums are checkedafter the equipment is installed. Factory adjustments haveproven to not be an adequate guarantee that the installedequipment will function as needed.
c-2.11 Carefully consider the throttling characteristics whenselecting the type and size of VAV terminal units. The installedcharacteristic curve of a throttling damper expected to modulatesupply air to a space, is a function of the inherentcharacteristic curve of the device and the ratio of the systempressure drop to the drop across the damper at maximum flow. As
the pressure drop of the damper at maximum flow is reduced (byselecting larger and larger dampers for a given flow rate--apractice promoted by the desire to save fan energy), theinstalled characteristic tends to move across the spectrum towardquick opening characteristics. The geometry of butterfly dampers
tends to exaggerate this shift. With dampers specially designedto retain linearity, this shift can be greatly reduced.
a) A shift toward quick opening increases the gain ofthe control component, i.e., a smaller part of its stroke isactually used f o r control. This is detrimental to the stabilityof the control system. The common tendency of selecting damperswith very low pressure drops can result in control that is nearly

It is better to pay some fan energy penalty andProperly sized
b) If PI terminal units are used, sizing becomes evenmore critical. Oversizing the boxes to reduce maximum flowpressure drop results in low neck velocities, which in turncreate problems for PI flow measuring devices. To minimizeproblems with sensing minimum flows in PI VAV boxes, size the boxsuch that at minimum flow, the neck velocity will be at least 500fpm.
c-2-12 Give special attention to linkages (VAV terminal unitdamper, fan inlet guide vanes, and controllable pitch vanes).
Feedback: Problems due to poorly designed/constructed linkagesare very common in Naval VAV systems.describe linkage requirements (because manufacturers are so
different, this may be difficult for VAV terminal units) or atleast require detailed shop drawings of linkages and pay closeattention to them. Finally, linkages should be included in thespecifications as a specific item to be performance checkedduring the acceptance testing of the system.

When designing VAV systems, do not use flex ductupstream of the terminal VAV box (i.e., between the air handlingunit and the VAV box). Use flex duct only to make terminal runsto diffuser boots and limit applications to straight runs of nomore than 5 feet. Hard duct 90 degree elbows should be used toconnect the flex duct to the diffuser boot. Do not use flex ductfor elbows.

recommended control sequence is as follows: the air handling unitsupplies a constant cold temperature (say 55 degrees F) air.Each VAV box modulates from maximum position (fully open) tominimum position (fully closed) through the control range of theroom thermostat. The justification for allowing full close-offin interior zones, in light of IAQ concerns, is that the peopleload plus lights in an interior zone are substantial, usuallyamounting to 50 percent of the zone load or more. This is truefor perimeter zones in a cooling only climate also, but to alesser extent. So , if people are present, and thus the lightsare on, the load will be above the minimum anyway. Therefore,the minimum is not needed.

For the very cold climate when the peak heating loadon the exterior wall is greater than 400 Btuh per linear foot ofwall (including infiltration), a separate skin heating system maybe used consisting of baseboard hot water convectors.Two-position electric spring-return control valves should beinstalled in each zone. Thus each perimeter zone will be servedby a VAV terminal unit for cooling and a corresponding section ofhot water convector for heating.

a) For a mild or moderate heating situation when thepeak heating load on the exterior wall is less than 400 Btuh perlinear foot of wall, the following arrangement is recommended.
Each zone should be served by the series fan-powered VAV box witha hot water heating coil and overhead supply diffusers.thermostat should modulate the VAV damper closed to themechanically field set minimum position at the cooling setpoint.On the further drop in space temperature to the heating setpoint,the hot water valve should open (using a modulating electricspring-return actuator) to allow control of heating.

c) In perimeter zones there will be a need to setbackthe temperature in many buildings when there is no occupancy.This is generally accomplished by a night setback thermostatwhich can bring the heating system back on line to maintain thesetback temperature.
c - 2 . 2 1 In perimeter zones with a VAV cooling system and aseparate perimeter heating system, design controls so that
occupants cannot adjust thermostats for simultaneous heating andcooling. This can be done by using a thermostat with cooling andheating setpoints integrated so that ranges of possibleadjustment do not overlap.

The supply air or coil shall becapable of bringing the temperature back to design in areasonable time without ill effects. For instance, the designermust be careful that the temperature of supply air during
start-up is not too far below the room dew point temperature toprevent condensation on diffusers.
Specify a method for building warm-up after setback.Many systems contain totally interior zones that have beendesigned without heat. The space, after setback over a weekend,can require an unacceptably long period of time to come up totemperature.

APPENDIX DVARIABLE SPEED DRIVES (VFD)
D-1.00 Introduction
D-1.01 Scone and Criteria. This appendix is intended toprovide basic information on the principles of operation ofVFD's, description of different types of VFD's, guidance on theproper application of VFD's, and installation guidelines to
ensure successful operation of VFD's. Over the last few years,the VFD has become one of the most effective motor controllersavailable for varying the speed of squirrel-cage inductionmotors. VFD's save energy, reduce electrical consumption,enhance equipment performance, are highly reliable, and havebecome affordable. Much of the material presented in thisAppendix was developed by Mr. Solomon S. Turkel, SeniorInstructor and Course Author for Advanced Technologies Marketing
and Service (ATMS) Inc., Baltimore, MD.
D-1-02 Terminoloav. VFD's drives are sometimes calledadjustable frequency controllers (AFC's). It is incorrect tocall them inverters or even adjustable speed drives (ASD's). Theterm 'IASD" refers to many types of adjustable speed drives,including belt or gear drives, eddy-current clutches, variable-pitch sheave drives, and DC systems, as well as VFD's. The VFDis the only type of motor drive that controls the speed of an ACinduction motor by changing the frequency and voltageappropriately.incorporates an electronic control section, an electromagneticand semiconductor power section, and typical components used withstandard motor controllers. Currently, available sizes rangefrom 1/3 horsepower (hp) to thousands of hp.
The VFD microprocessor-based motor controller
D-l. 3 Oneration. The principles of operation of VFD's areclosely related to basic motor theory. During operation, thestator's rotating magnetic field, which is created by the AC linepower to the motor, induces a voltage in the rotor. This inducedvoltage causes a current to flow in the rotor, which createsmagnetic fields with north and south poles. The synchronousspeed of an AC induction motor is dependent upon the number of
poles in the stator and the frequency of the line power applied.The basic equation is as follows:
Speed = (120 times frequency) divided by numberof poles
From this equation , a four-pole motor operating at 60Hz will have synchronous speed of 1800 rpm. When a VFD suppliespower to an AC motor, it has the capability to provide a voltage

at a frequency from less than 1 Hz to about 120 Hz. This means
that the motor may run extremely slow or very fast, depending onthe frequency supplied; and the amplitude of the voltage suppliedmust be proportional to the frequency to ensure the propervolts/hertz ratio for the specific motor.a motor is determined by the ratio of voltage applied to themotor at a given frequency.
volts-per-hertz ratio will affect motor torque, temperature,speed, noise, and current draw. Thus, for a motor to produce itsrated torque at variable speeds, it is also necessary to controlthe voltage as well as the frequency supplied to the motor. Forexample, a 460 volt motor operating at 60 Hz will have a
volts/hertz ratio of 7.67 to 1. For a VFD to operate this motorat 30 Hz (half speed), the motor voltage must be reduced to 230volts to maintain the same torque characteristics for the motor.
Motors are designed with specific torque characteristics and areclassified accordingly.horsepower rating, their actual torque capability in the areas ofbreakaway torque, pull-up torque, peak torque, and full-loadtorque may be different, depending on their NEMA classifications.Typical designs are Type A, B, C, and D. Refer to NationalElectrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) MG-1, Motors andGenerators, for a detailed explanation of these NEMA designs andof motor torque capabilities.horsepower, the required torque at all speeds is the key tosuccessful, efficient operation of the VFD and its motor.

D-1.04.1 PWM Desisn
a) The PWM drive has become the most commonly used
drive controller because it works well with motors ranging insize from about 1/2 hp to 500 hp. A significant reason for itspopularity is that it's highly reliable, affordable, and reflectsthe least amount of harmonics back into its power source. Most
units are rated either 230 volts or 460 volts, three-phase, andprovide output frequencies from about 2 Hz to 400 Hz.manufacturers market the PWM controller.
Nearly 100
b) In the PWM drive, an AC line supply voltage isbrought into the input section. From here, the AC voltage passes
into a converter section that uses a diode bridge converter andlarge DC capacitors to create and maintain a stable, fixed DC bus
voltage. The DC voltage passes into the inverter section usuallyfurnished with insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT's), whichregulate both voltage and frequency to the motor to produce anear sine wave like output.
c) The term "pulse width modulation" explains how eachtransition of the alternating voltage output is actually a seriesof short pulses of varying widths.pulses in each half cycle, the average power produced has a sine-like output. The number of transitions from positive to negative
per second determines the actual frequency to the motor.
By varying the width of the
d) Switching speeds of the IGBT's in a PWM drive canrange from 2 kHz to 15 kHz. Today's newer PWM designs use powerIGBT's, which operate at these higher frequencies. By havingmore pulses in every half cycle, the motor whine associated withVFD applications is reduced because the motor windings are nowoscillating at a frequency beyond the spectrum of human hearing.Also, the current wave shape to the motor is smoothed out ascurrent spikes are removed.
e) PWM's have the following advantages:
(i) Excellent input power factor due to fixedDC bus voltage.
(2) No motor cogging normally found withsix-step inverters.
( 3 ) Highest efficiencies: 92 percent to96 percent.

b) Flux vector drives use a method of controllingtorque similar to that of DC drive systems, including wide speedcontrol range with quick response. Flux vector drives have the
same power section as PWM drives, but use a sophisticated closedloop control from the motor to the drive's microprocessor. Themotor's rotor position and speed is monitored in real time via aresolver or digital encoder to determine and control the motor'sactual speed, torque, and power produced.
c) By controlling the inverter section in response toactual load conditions at the motor in a real time mode, superiortorque control can be obtained. The personality of the motormust be programmed into or learned by the drive in order for itto run the vector control algorithms. In most cases, specialmotors are required due to the torque demands expected of the
motor.

they enhance process operations, particularly where flow controlis involved. VFD’s soft start capabilities decrease electricalstresses and line voltage sags associated with full voltage motorstart-ups, especially when driving high-enertia loads. For themotor to produce the required torque for the load, the VFD musthave ample current capability to drive the motor. It isimportant to note that machine torque is independent of motorspeed and that load horsepower increases linearly with rpm.Individual load types are as follows:
a) Constant torque loads. Constant torque loadsrepresent 90 percent of general industrial machines (other thanpumps and fans). Examples of these load types include generalmachinery, hoists, conveyors, printing presses, positivedisplacement pumps, some mixers and extruders, reciprocating
compressors, as well as rotary compressors.
b) Constant horsepower loads. Constant horsepowerloads are most often found in the machine tool industry andcenter driven winder applications.horsepower loads include winders, core-driven reels, wheelgrinders, large driller machines, lathes, planers, boringmachines, and core extruders.
Examples of constant
Traditionally, these loads were considered DC driveapplications only. With high performance flux vector VFD’s nowavailable, many DC drive applications of this type can be nowhandled by VFD‘s.
c) Variable torque loads. Variable torque loads aremost often found in variable flow applications, such as fans andpumps. Examples of applications include fans, centrifugalblowers, centrifugal pumps, propeller pumps, turbine pumps,agitators, and axial compressors. VFD’s offer the greatestopportunity for energy savings when driving these loads becausehorsepower varies as the cube of speed and torque varies assquare of speed for these loads. For example, if the motor speedis reduced 20 percent, motor horsepower is reduced by a cubic
relationship ( - 8 x . 8 x . 8 ) , or 51 percent. As such, utilitiesoften offer subsidies to customers investing in VFD technologyfor their applications. Many VFD manufacturers have freesoftware programs available for customers to calculate anddocument potential energy savings by using VFD’s.

a) VFD operating more than one motor. The total peakcurrents of motor loads under worst operating conditions must becalculated. The VFD must be sized based on this maximum currentrequirement. Additionally, individual motor protection must beprovided here for each motor.
b) Load is spinning or coasting when the VFD isstarted. This is very often the case with fan applications.When a VFD is first started, it begins to operate at a lowfrequency and voltage and gradually ramps up to a preset speed.If the load is already in motion, it will be out of sync with theVFD. The VFD will attempt to pull the motor down to the lowerfrequency, which may require high current levels, usually causingan overcurrent trip. Because of this, VFD manufacturers offerdrives with an option for synchronization with a spinning load;
this VFD ramps at a different frequency.
c) Power supply source is switched while the VFD isrunning. This occurs in many buildings, such as hospitals, whereloads are switched to standby generators in the event of a poweroutage. Some drives will ride through a brief power outage whileothers may not. If your application is of this type, it must bereviewed with the drive manufacturer for a final determination ofdrive capability.
d) Hard to start load. These are the motors that dimthe lights in the building when you hit the start button.
Remember, the VFD is limited in the amount ofovercurrent it can produce for a given period of time. Theseapplications may require oversizing of the VFD for higher currentdemands.
e) Critical starting or stopping times. Someapplications may require quick starting or emergency stopping ofthe load. In either case, high currents will be required of thedrive. Again, oversizing of the VFD may be required.
f) External motor disconnects required between themotor and the VFD . Service disconnects at motor loads are veryoften used for maintenance purposes. Normally, removing a loadfrom a VFD while operating does not pose a problem for the VFD .
On the other hand, introducing a load to a VFD by closing a motordisconnect while the VFD is operational can be fatal to the VFD.
When a motor is started at full voltage, as would happen in thiscase, high currents are generated, usually about six times thefull load amperes of the motor current. The VFD would see these

To properly size a VFD foran application, you must understand the requirements of the load.The torque ratings are as important as the horsepower ratings.Every load has distinct torque requirements that vary with theload's operation; these torques must be supplied by the motor viathe VFD. You must have a clear understanding of these torques.
a) Breakaway torque: torque required to start a loadin motion (typically greater than the torque required to maintainmotion).
b) Accelerating torque: torque required to bring theload to operating speed within a given time.
c) Running torque: torque required to keep the loadmoving at all speeds.
d) Peak torque: occasional peak torque required by
the load, such as a load being dropped on a conveyor.
e) Holding torque: torque required by the motor whenoperating as a brake, such as down hill loads and high inertiamachines.

VFD’s are designed tooperate at some nominal voltage such as 2 4 0 volts AC or 480 voltsAC, with an allowable voltage variation of plus or minus 10percent. Most motor starters will operate beyond this 10 percentvariation, but VFD’s will not and will go into a protective trip.A recorded voltage reading of line power deviations is highlyrecommended for each application.

failures are a result of improper installation and start-up.Careful planning of your VFD installation will help avoid manyproblems. Be sure the VFD specification requires furnishing ofthe drive‘s operation and maintenance manual.considerations include temperature and line power qualityrequirements, along with electrical connections, grounding, faultprotection, motor protection, and environmental parameters.

f) Motor Protection. Motors require overloadprotection. The most common practice is the use of a motor
overcurrent relay system that will protect all three phases andprotect against single-phasing. This type of protection willrespond to motor overcurrent conditions of an overloaded motor,but will not detect overtemperature conditions.
A motor operating at reduced speeds will havereduced cooling; as a result, it may fail due to thermalbreakdown of the motor windings insulation. Thus, the optimumprotection for a motor is thermal sensing of the motor windings.This sensing is then interlocked with the VFD’s control circuit.This is highly recommended for any motor that is to be operatedfor extended periods of time at low speeds.
9) Environment
(1)Humidity and Moisture. As is the case with allelectrical and electronic equipment, high humidity and corrosiveatmospheres are a concern. Drive units should be installed in anoncorrosive location whenever possible, with ambient humidityranging between O to 95 percent noncondensing. Avoid locationssubject to rain, dust, corrosive fumes, or vapors, and saltwater. in some cases, appropriate NEMA enclosures may bespecified where some of these locations cannot be avoided.Consult VFD manufacturers about the location and applicationbefore doing so.
(2) Vibration. Do not locate VFD’s near vibratingequipment unless appropriate vibration isolation methods areemployed.
( 3 ) Line Transmitted Transients. The VFD is asolid-state electronic device, therefore, surge and transientprotection (from lightning strikes, circuit switching, largemotor starting, etc.) should be specified, either integral to theVFD or external, as appropriate.
D-l.11 Start-up Procedures
a) Successful installation of VFD’s, as with nearlyall electrical equipment, is derived from an orderly, wellplanned start-up procedure. After reading the entire VFD manualand before energizing the VFD, make a physical inspection of theVFD and look for the following:

system designed for 60 Hz can have significant losses at harmonicfrequencies, which causes higher operating temperatures andshortened component life. The harmonics generated by a VFDaffect not only the load it serves (the motor), but are also
reflected back into the power distribution system, thus affectingother devices connected to the distribution system. Reference 13addresses the motor heating and life expectancy concerns. Thephysical location of the VFD and its interface point with thepower system within the facility are important. Do not locatethe VFD near other electronic equipment, including radarequipment, radio equipment, computers, hospital diagnostic andlife support equipment, or telecommunications equipment.Minimize the length of line and load power leads as much aspossible. Always run line and load conductors in a groundedcontinuous metallic conduit system. Since most mechanical
systems and controls now include solid-state electronics, takeprecautions to prevent their damage or malfunction due to VFDgenerated harmonics.circuit when the VFD does not include adequate filteringinternally for the specific application.design engineer for help with resolving interference and harmonicdistortion concerns.

D-l. 3 VFD-Driven Premium Efficiency Motor Concerns. Althoughbeyond the scope of this handbook, it should be noted that notall premium efficiency motors are suitable for control by VFD's.During the design stage, contact both VFD manufacturers and
premium efficiency motor manufacturers to ensure compatibilityfor the application at hand.
D-l. 14 Troubleshootins VFD Problems. Although important inensuring long-term successful VFD operation, it is beyond thescope of this handbook to cover troubleshooting of VFD problems.The subject of troubleshooting VFD's during their operatinglifetime is well covered in References 6 and 7.
